http://dansenshus.se/event/phoenix/Phoenix is a work created with choreographer Rebecka Stillman. On stage we meet 13 dance artists who use different chorographical methods to explore what it means to actually be a company. They delve deep into the knowledge and experience they have between them as a group, to see what might come out on the other side of the fire. The focus is on how the body of a company is built, examining its social as well as physical characteristics.

Weld Company comprises dancers and choreographers from different generations and contexts that together explore different choreographical methods and issues concerning the collective and the shared. Weld Company is the brainchild of the Weld dance and art platform in Stockholm.

WRITINGHUBS
Three Thursday afternoons in a row Weld Company is arranging Writinghubs at Dansens Hus, as part of the process of the upcoming performance Phoenix.

The writing is related to the idea of a repertory dance company, in the past, the present and into the future. We write from the viewer’s position, for everyone who creates dance and from a place of hope..
